WEEK 1: My name is Gustav Kaulitz. I am a German soldier fighting in World War I. It's been a long, cold, hard, and seemingly endless war. We are in the war because our leaders wanted to compete with Britain for the strongest navy. I've seen more fatalities in my 17 years of life than anyone should experience seeing in their lifetime. I didn't volunteer for this, nor did I ever want to be put in this situation. They didn't give us any choice as to whether we wanted to fight for in this war that I personally think is completely ridiculous and very un-called for. There have been rumors of an unofficial peace treaty on Christmas Eve. I really hope its true, just to give us a small break from this war that has caused so much bloodshed. Our leaders don't advise that we get involved in the treaty, but personally I think it's worth it. This is already traumatizing enough. It seems nothing has gone right after the Schlieffen Plan failed miserably. I'm really hoping this war will end soon I'm tired, and mentally drained from this. I really don't know how much more of this I can handle. It seems like the government doesn't care how it's affecting us, and how much damage it's doing to our country, our troops, and to everyone's morale. I miss my family, my friends, and my home. I just want to go home and live in peace. The assassanaion of arch duke Franz Ferdinand didn't really affect me. He was nothing special to me because he wasnt for my country. It's not our responsibility to fight for other countries.
WEEK 2: This war still hasn't ended. I'm not quite sure what our battle plan is, but if I had to create a plan I would send the troops to the front lines, and
